MAYFIELD, Ky. — A 69-year-old man from New Concord, Delbert Orey, was arrested on July 1, 2025, after allegedly assaulting two deputies during an altercation at a residence on Norris Drive.
Authorities responded to reports of a disturbance where Orey was said to have assaulted another individual and locked them out of the home. When deputies arrived, Orey resisted arrest and struck both officers.
He was taken into custody and charged with two counts of third-degree assault on a police officer—a Class D felony—along with fourth-degree assault and resisting arrest.
Fortunately, no injuries were reported, and no medical attention was required. Orey was held at the Calloway County Detention Center awaiting further proceedings.
